Problems solved by technology

However, pressure acid leaching has disadvantages such as molybdenum dispersed in two phases, difficult to recover, high requirements for reaction equipment, complex equipment structure, and high cost.
The problem of oxidative leaching of sodium hypochlorite is that the consumption of sodium hypochlorite is large, generally 1.5 to 2.0 times the theoretical amount, which makes the cost of oxidant too high; at the same time, some copper and iron will be mixed with MoO after entering the solution. 4 2- Insoluble molybdate precipitates are generated, causing greater loss of molybdenum; in addition, sodium hypochlorite is easy to decompose, which is not convenient for transportation and storage
However, molybdenite (MoS 2 ) has a melting point as high as 2375°C, and cannot be melted to form a molten pool like other heavy metal sulfides under the existing process conditions

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for treating copper-molybdenum mixed ores, belonging to the field of molybdenum metallurgy. The method comprises the following steps: directly heating the copper-molybdenum mixed ores to a molten state, or heating to a molten by using an assistant flux copper matte (matte) (for high-molybdenum low-copper mixed concentrate) to form copper molybdenum matte; introducing air or oxygen-enriched air into the copper molybdenum matte to carry out converting until molybdenum sulfide in the copper molybdenum matte is oxidated into MoO3 to be volatilized, recycling the MoO3 from smoke dust by dust collection, and sending the dedusted flue gas to the acid making process; and after finishing converting, returning the low-molybdenum copper matte to the next matte formation process or sending the low-molybdenum copper matte to a copper smelting system. The method has the advantages of short process, favorable mass-transfer heat-transfer conditions, high productivity, high heat utilization, high SO2 concentration in flue gas, strong adaptability to raw materials, and the like.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of molybdenum metallurgy and relates to a method for extracting molybdenum from copper and molybdenum mixed ore. Background technique [0002] Molybdenum is a rare and high melting point metal, which is widely used in electrical and electronic, material processing, chemical, glass industry, high-temperature electric furnaces, aerospace and defense and military industries. The most important molybdenum mineral is molybdenite, which accounts for more than 90% of the world's molybdenum mining. In nature, molybdenite often coexists with other heavy metal sulfides such as galena and chalcopyrite to form polymetallic composite ore. [0003] According to reports, about 50% of the world’s current molybdenum production comes from copper-molybdenum ore, which is recycled as a by-product of copper concentrate. For example, more than 20 copper mines in Chile, North America and South America mainly recover molybdenum from the by-produc...
